Fashion NoNo

Beyonce, singer/actor walked the red carpet with a phony pony and no jewerly. Wat was she thinking? I have never ever seen Beyonce look so horrible especially on the red carpet. The red carpet is where you strut and show off all your beautiful clothing , your stlye, your personality. i mean don't get me wrong her dress was pretty, but it would have looked beautiful if she accented it with jewerly and a nice hair style to match. She should know out of all people that you have to always have a hairstyle to match and jewerly to go with the outfit. Her mother is a clothes designer. i couldn't belive my eyes when I saw this picture. This Diva, is not on her game.



P.S. Happy birthday Turq!!

Finally!!

I have finally found a sponsor. About time! I have been looking and looking everywhere and I began to loose hope but then, someone came through. i had some help from Morgan and Ms. porter and mostly my mentor Ms. Clark. They just kept helping me and pushing me not to give up. This i s some weight lifted off my shoulders, one less thing to worry about. So far every Friday is the given date which we will meet in Audobon at her spot. I can't wait to really start on my senior project and learn about fashion. I know this will turn ou t to be a great experience.

This is the kind of fashion I like. Richie Heatherette The most unique fashion desingner I know. His styles as are crazy cool. I once noticed his fashion on Tiana taylor's sweet sixteen. She had a dress that was so amazing something like no other. He is a very talented young man and I can't wait to see what other fashion he will come up with. Richie is the new Louis Vution! FIERCE, that's all I can say.

The First Lady and Fashion!

A fashion icon would have an eye-catching signature look and, while the president's wife has the power to set trends, her appeal is refreshingly not so defined and deliberate, said fashion observers at the semi-annual Fashion Week in New York, where designers are showing their Fall 2009 collections.
Michelle Obama "is more real than iconic," said David Wolfe, creative director of the Doneger Group, which forecasts trends. "She doesn't have a locked-in fashion look. She experiments, which is what fashion is about these days."
References to Obama, 45, as an icon of fashion are everywhere. Thin and statuesque, the attorney and mother of two graces the cover of Vogue magazine's March issue.
She wins lavish attention from designers, editors and stylists. Stores quickly sell out of the clothes she wears.
Jason Wu, the young designer of Obama's white inaugural gown and the magenta dress she wears in Vogue, credits the first lady with reinvigorating the industry.
"In her own way, she is like a stimulus package for the fashion industry," Wu said.
Few first ladies deserved the title as fashion icons, said Mandi Norwood, a former magazine editor writing a book on Obama's style.
"We've been trying desperately to promote the first lady into fashion icon status, but I'm not sure any of them have truly deserved that title," she said.
Obama does have some company in U.S. history, said Lisa Kathleen Graddy, curator of "The First Ladies at the Smithsonian" exhibit.
Frances Cleveland's clothes and hairstyle were copied and commented upon, and advertisers used her to sell products she had never seen or used. The Victorian-era bustle even fell out of U.S. fashion when it was reported she would no longer wear the rear-enhancing gowns.
Another fashionable first lady was Grace Coolidge, who is considered to have popularized fashion, said Graddy.

Almost There

As of now I still have not found another sponsor for senior project. I have been calling around everywhere. Today Ms. Hafner called the The Art Institute and Drexel University where they have a good fashion program. We were not able to get through but we did leave a message. I have a good feeling that they might be interested in the program and will consider to be my sponsor. I going to keep on trying and hopefully by next week I will have a permanent sponsor. If not, I'll just do photography, I know I will have a definite sponsor for that.

Frustration

It is very frustrating when you have had someone to agree about being your sponsor then all of a sudden they do not contact you any more. People may think that I am not putting effort into finding a sponsor but little do they know, I am. Well last month I had already found one. Since she gave up on me I have to start all over from scratch which is not easy. So far as of yesterday I have called three places. One person basically said she wasn't interested, another stated call them back after 10 o'clock tomorrow, and the third person did not answer the phone, so I left a message. Ms. sykes who is such a big help to me gave me a great idea to call the Unversity of arts to see is maybe a senior student attending there could be of any help to sponsor me. Right now I am desperate I am willing to get any sponsor I can get that knows about fashion. If I am not able to find a sponor for fashion, I think I might swtich over to photography. That would be better for me because my father takes pictures and I already know a little about what angles to take pictures etc. Well hopefully something comes through for me and quick because I am ready to explore.
